Reminder-Extra drinks

As the weather is getting warmer some of the children are drinking all their drinks by little break and are looking for extra drinks. The school lunches provide milk every day if the children wish but many don't want to drink milk. Can you please make sure that all children have a water bottle that they can refill as needed throughout the day. Many children are doing this already. Thanks

Board games

 3rd class are working well during SPHE over the past few Thursdays. They are all being very encouraging and helpful towards each other and are doing well at turn taking. They understand that it is ok to be disappointed if you lose a game but have shown great maturity in how they reacting to this. There have been some healthy debates about the rules in some games but everyone has conducted themselves in a respectful manner. Feel free to bring in games over the coming Thursdays if you wish.

Well done to the class who are working on improving their organisational skills. They reached their target of a combined class total of 150 points last Friday so they went to Fr.Collins today as their reward. Another school were there with a younger class and the teachers from that school came over twice to say how well behaved the children were and how kind and caring they were towards the younger children.Well done 3rd class. The class are going to continue to work on their organisational skills and are now working towards achieving 175 points .

Standardised tests are on tomorrow and next Wednesday. Please try to make sure all children are in school on these days.

School tour 27th June. Final cost to be confirmed.

Denise

Note
During SPHE for the month of May we are going to be working on turn taking, getting along and conflict resolution. The children can struggle at times to accept when they loose in a game so this is a skill we will be improving. To help with this I am going to do board games weekly with them to allow them to use all the skills they are taught-turn taking, speaking appropriately when they disagree with a team mate, following rules and instructions, persisting when they aren't winning etc. If they wish they may bring in board games for this lesson. Please no electronics and label all games you send in.
Games we already have in  class include cards,frustration, connect 4 and chess.

Thanks-Denise
